Subject: Preminger!
The little clip promoting an Otto Preminger film is a nice touch.

Reviewer: frontrowkid - - August 30, 2009
Subject: Coming Attractions logo
There was also a coming attractions logo which had a revolving platter with Coming Attractions on one side and Coming soon on another. The screen then switched to a silver glittery background with the individual days of the week printed on them. Could you find one of these?

Subject: Actually, it's from 1959.
This film is noted as being circa 1940's. But as the end of the film reveals that the film to be previewed is 'Anatomy of a Murder', that would place it in 1959. In the 'Anatomy of a Murder' trailer, also available on this website, Lee Remick can be seen exiting a 1959 Cadillac convertible.

Isn't this the greatest website (and project) ever?

Subject: Mediocre
Nothing really special.

Subject: Good file
You could put together a little DVD release with this clip as the lead in for some of the trailers featured on this website, and then add a "feature presentation clip" and a film of your choice.

Note that "previews" is misspelled in the programme ("prevues"?)

Subject: When did the Evue become an Eview?
Another reviewer had a good point there.. This ¡®Prevue¡¯ ad nevertheless is quite fun. I like the music and the wipes here. I¡¯ll give it a good revue.

Reviewer: Sarte - 3.00 out of 5 stars3.00 out of 5 stars3.00 out of 5 stars - October 6, 2004
Subject: Prevues? What the heck are Prevues?
"Prevues of coming attractions!" Another all-purpose film clip. Apparently, one of these coming attractions was "Anatomy of a murder," judging by the film's end.

Reviewer: EvilEbert - 2.00 out of 5 stars2.00 out of 5 stars - January 19, 2003
Subject: A preview of things to come?
So what happens next? The suspense will leave you sleepless.
